The 180 reproductions which illustrate this book give a general survey of the art of Hindu and Buddhist India.
These photographs, most of which have never been published previously, have been collected during extensive travels and many years of research. Complex temple-towers, gracefully swaying bronze figures, splendid, rock-hewn images of gods and beasts, frescoes, decorative reliefs, monumental statues and busts are included in this selection. The student will find the detailed photographs of buildings and sculptures (some of which were taken in exceptionally difficult circumstances) as well as the eight colour reproductions of paintings, which supplement the monochrome photogravures, particularly valuable.
